Hi

- I don't understand why you'd need them. They are automatically created ny 
LTSP-admin during setup and installation. 
On my Suse9.3 I don't 
have /etc/default/interfaces, /etc/default/portmap, /etc/dhcp3/dhcp.conf.

I'm sending what I've got. Though I'm not sure the list will let me attach 
stuff. If not, get back, please.




Best regards,
Verner
